The pie chart shows the cost estimated by a family for the renovation of their house, as percentages of the total estimated cost of Rs 1,20,000.
What is the cost estimated by the family for painting and flooring together?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 2
The correct answer is Option (2) → Rs 34,800
The two sectors together take the sum of their percentages of the total estimated cost.
Painting + flooring \(=15\%+14\%=29\%\)
29% of Rs 1,20,000 \(\displaystyle=\frac{29}{100}\times120000=\) Rs 34,800
